Services for our researchers
The Information Service for Research, International Affairs and Transfer (FIT) is an email service that provides researchers with targeted and tailored information on research funding.
You can register with FIT using your email address and create a personal user profile: you decide which scientific fields, types of funding and funding bodies you would like to receive information about. At a time of your choosing, you will receive an email with the latest funding information relevant to you.
If you require further information, you can search the FIT database at any time.
This service is available free of charge to researchers at HGU.
Members of Hochschule Geisenheim University can register and create a profile at fit.uni-kassel.de to use FIT.
The Geisenheim University research portal lists our scientists' ongoing projects. Here you can also search for publications by our colleagues or discover our key research areas.
In a series of short films, we show you the topics our university is engaged with, who our research partners are and who works for us.
Here you will find general information about research data management for your projects.
Here you will find the RDMO HGU, the data management plan tool from Geisenheim University. You will be guided through a series of questions about the data generated in your project to create a complete research data plan.
